River City Returns To MechWarrior OnlineAug 27th, 2012 at 3:38 PM by Mirai

An old friend.

As someone who played MechAssault, the classic MechWarrior Xbox game from a decade ago, this completely thrills me - the River City map comes to MechWarrior Online. It's not identical - it looks prettier (if ruined), it's bigger, and much of the area is indestructible, but it's the same idea. Multiple layers of hills, buildings, and bridges provide unique playstyle on the giant map, and the deep river adds complexity as it bogs down your movement but the water cools your heatsink. And, just in case you forgot, the Founder's Program is over September 6th.
